Sculpting Time

On view: May 21 – July 26, 2009 Opening Reception: May 21, 6:30 – 8pm

If you get a chance, go see Laurel Lukaszewski's wonderful new installation in Sculpting Time at Vis Arts, it opens tonight at VisArts in Rockville, MD.

Sculpting Time juxtaposes the permanent properties of sculptures with the transitory qualities of time. From raw to woven clay, site-specific installations showcase a range of ceramic explorations and techniques that reflect the changes and cycles taking place within and around the artists.

Converse with an artist in action, May 23 – 24, 2009! Emerging from VisArts’ gallery floor and walls, Louise Radochonski manipulates clay to shape the body, legs and arms questions about her techniques, what inspires her, and how she solves aesthetic problems. Never to be fired, Radochonski’s Fallen Figure will shrink and change shape over time, existing only for the duration of the exhibition.
